About Iago's voice

Iago is Jafar's red parrot sidekick in Disney's Aladdin (1992), a schemer who would rather talk than fly and who never stops grumbling about the crackers he is fed. Gilbert Gottfried voiced him in the films, the TV series and the Kingdom Hearts games, and his delivery is the whole joke: a shrill, nasal, raspy voice pushed to full volume, with words squeezed out through clenched teeth and every sentence ending in outrage.

Tips for the best Iago audio

Write Iago as a complainer: short sentences, sarcastic 'oh, great' openers and an exclamation mark on the punchline. The model sounds most like him when the line builds to a rant.
Add a squawk like 'Awk!' at the start of a line for the parrot touch, and keep the words simple; a long, flowing sentence loses his clipped, shouty rhythm.

Iago AI voice FAQ

Who voices Iago in Aladdin?

Gilbert Gottfried voiced Iago in the 1992 film, its sequels The Return of Jafar and Aladdin and the King of Thieves, the animated series and the Kingdom Hearts games. In the 2019 live-action remake, Iago was voiced by Alan Tudyk.

Is this the same as a Gilbert Gottfried voice?

It is made from Iago's lines, so it carries Gottfried's voice as he played the parrot: loud, nasal and squawky. It suits angry, sarcastic and comic lines best.

Yes. Generate Iago's side line by line, pick another voice for the other character, and cut the clips together in your video editor for a back-and-forth.
